General Description
The HMC410MS8G is a passive double balanced
high IP3 mixer that operates between 9 GHz and
15 GHz. The HMC410MS8G operates with LO
drive levels between +13 dBm and +19 dBm, and
provides 8 dB conversion loss across the entire
specified frequency band. This mixer requires no
external components or bias.

IF Por t
This pin is DC coupled. For applications not requiring operation
to DC, this por t should be DC blocked externally using a series
capacitor whose value has been chosen to pass the necessar y
IF frequency range. For operation to DC, this pin must not
source/sink more than 4mA of current or die non-function and
possible die failure will result.

101650 Evaluation Board
* Circuit Board Material: Rogers 4350
The circuit board used in the final application should
use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should
have 50 ohm impedance while the package ground
leads and exposed paddle should be connected directly
to the ground plane similar to that shown. A sufficient
number of VIA holes should be used to connect the top
and bottom ground planes. The evaluation circuit board
shown is available from Hittite upon request.
